    Verdict

    Older horses have come out best in this race in recent years though Brown Panther should make a bold bid for the three-year-olds. He had Census behind when scoring at Royal Ascot but could only manage fifth on heavy ground in the German Derby last time. However, MEEZNAH is hard to get away from here. She's still improving judged on her impressive win in the Group 3 Lillie Langtry at Goodwood last month and Frankie stays loyal despite the presence of Godolphin's Claremont. The latter hasn't raced since Meydan back in March and Times Up looks a bigger threat. He won a Listed race at York before finishing second in a Group 2 at Longchamp with today's French raider Mores Wells a couple of lengths behind. Listed winner Chiberta King needs more in this company, but All The Aces returned from injury with a decent effort at Sandown and could figure if retaining all his ability.
